Hi all, quite new player here (started playing around the start of the ride or die event). I maybe missed 1 of the participation weeks for ride or die and also will miss 2 weeks in January since I will be abroad and cant play.. Im not sure if I already missed a week since the start, my participation counter says 3 (and I did participate for this week already) Either I will make participation of 10 weeks or I will only make it to 9... what is the counter for the participation of u all?

And another question in case I will miss the 10 week participation: I was wondering how often nexon will decide to extend an event period OR be a bit forgiving if players dont succeed in and only participatimg 9 weeks instead of 10?

Like honestly as a new player its stuff like this that is really frustrating and will just make me drop the game alltogether instantly because I know I will be missing out on that legion block..

If a Hexa Mastery Core requires level 40, for example, is it necessary (or must be) to max-level the corresponding V Matrix Boost node? Will leveling the skill to 40 (without Matrix Points) and then using the Hexa version of the same skill work effectively? Or am I misunderstanding something?

Just rejoined MS after over a decade of not playing, I made a Kain last Friday in Kronos called KainsDestiny, lvl 203. Can solo hard pink bean, hard hilla, hard zakum and a couple more hard bosses including CRA queen, it’s a burning character so they gave me the challenger set and root abyss set but looking to join a guild make some friends to make more progress and help out in parties! Also if anyone wants to do the older forgotten bosses/quests for fun I’m down just friend request me. I don’t play everyday (I have a job and gf but I do play often enough! 🧎‍♂️)

I've tried getting into the game twice with meta picks (DW and NW) and quit by the time i got to hluwill out of boredom, I came back again 6 months ago and picked DB, and now 6 months later (with 2 months of those being fairly inactive due to life) I've cleared BM in a pug.

The game really is very enjoyable if you play at your own pace and play with a class you really resonate with and want to prog on, if you told 2nd grade me I'd one day down the big baddie himself I'd have called cap

I am a bit ashamed i only blue dotted, everyone was around 20-30m cp above me but I was green dot until p4 where I've only ever practiced it once so I was so scared of dying out i only bursted and focused on staying alive

Onwards to seren for me boys

Hello Maplers! For the past few days I have been experiencing the "Unable to connect to the game server" issue when logging into my character. I can still open the Nexon Launcher and Play the game, select the Kronos World and character. But when I start the game, there is a lag and I will be taken out to the World selection screen and the "Unable to connect to the game server" window will appear. Although the internet connection is still normal and I can still view facebook, youtube...

I have tried resetting the network, changing DNS but this issue still occurs. What should I do?

I was able to login with no issues earlier today at the beginning or reset, but I am now suddenly being greeted with the following image upon attempting to login. It basically gives me no other option except exiting the game.

I tried restarting the steam launcher, which also included completely exiting the steam application, and then re-opening steam itself before attempting to relaunch the game. Still the same message.

Has anyone ever dealt with the same or similar situation? I'm afraid my account might be locked out indefinitely

Hey guys, this is an update to my guide that I made about 6 months ago. I recently came back to the game after a health issue, and decided to update the guide. There are some parts that are still shaky, and some questions that I personally do not have answers to yet (usually listed in light blue text in the guide). There seemed to be overwhelming support for the guide last time I posted it, so I hope this can help some new players.

Every time I log in to my DS and play with him the game will randomly crash within minutes of me playing. I have lost so many 3X Exp coupons and stuff it's not even funny. I log in to any other character and I have no problems at all can can play on them for hours. The moment the DS touches down the game decides to commit sudoku.

Is it only me having this problem?

I was playig fine for awhile using Geforce now but suddenly today after I had just played a few hours back Maplestory no longer boots from GeforceNow. I have a green play button on steam when geforcenow boots up but after the nexon security launcher appears after a few seconds nothing happens and the play button goes green again (e.g. maplestory isn't booting up)

Has anyone experienced this before and know how to troubleshoot?

• I've tried verifying files
• I've tried changing regions
• I've tried rebooting my own machine

EDIT: I've tried everything below, thanks for all the suggestions everyone but still no luck :\

saved up 12k frags for event and rolled this 5k frags in

So every week i clear bosses by either soloing or join random parties in boss UI. I’m looking for friends i can progress bosses with. I’m 277 on hyperion, I haven’t even started lib quest lol. I’m on daily but i’d still say i’m pretty casual

Hi guys is any of those set permanent? or are they timed costume?
Thank you

is he stupid???

seriously, is there a lore reason he doesn't?

I am beyond confused.

Upon killing any gollux. There are no drops + there is no time to pick up drops as I am immediately teleported into another room with the heart tree guardian who tells me to enter the heart and kill gollux.

If I enter the heart again, I warp out of the map into the exit map to go back to where I was before.

Is this a bug? What am I missing.

I’m tired of seeing posts on here about how you don’t have enough time to play because of “work”. People don’t seem to understand how hard it is for us real maplestory players. I’m currently leveling my 3rd night walker on kronos and I’m considering quitting cause of how stressful it is. Now don’t get me wrong I’m not saying your 9-5 is easy but you’ll never know the pain of being asked to carry (I’m committed wapper) or having to farm 3 eternal sets. I was in a nkaling yesterday and the bishop blinked on a grindstone despite it being optimal for wj5 offburst (needless to say I kicked him) but that’s not even the worse part. The lynn I replaced him with only had a 30% awakening fd boost (I checked his stat window). I have to put up with these extremely stressful situations for upwards of 12 hours a day. So to anyone saying “I wish I could quit my job and play maplestory all day”. NO YOU DONT!!

Can we get qol that players are asking for instead of what kms dev think we want?since we now go seperate way i dont see why we couldnt get SKILL RESET ON BOSS EXIT AND CULVERT why do we have to wait for ori and losing precious buff time waiting for skill we used in a previous boss....what if i want to practice my culvert rotation but no...gotta wait 6 min for ori again . How hard can it be to make this hapen....

I know this has been asked before but I dont even know what to log in with to get to the steam account that was created when i downloaded it initially through steam because I am beyond fed up with the nexon launcher and breaking every other day forcing me to reinstall. My question is where do I find that account info (I tried my steam log in info and it didnt work)?

Heyo, I'm a new player and I kinda feel overwhelmed by everything going on like upgrading equipment stats, some weird scroll and star enchantment mechanic, monster card collecting, etc. Do y'all have any advice how to navigate maplestory? There seems to be so much to do and I just can't seem to wrap my head around it.

as the title says. i've been feeling bummed lately since it seems like nexon is phasing out custom animations. lynn, angelic buster, shade, and aran all got a mix of pixel animation and custom art, but the only actual animations were either reused or not included. even the lotus remaster was changed to pixel art instead of the simple picture animation most other bosses get (it's still badass tho. impact frames go crazy).

i know we still get animations sometimes- i believe there was one for limbo's trailer- but it just feels like less lately. or like it's implemented in the wrong places? lmk what u think i guess

anyway my favorite animation is kain's; it's the most beautifully done in the whole game i swear. you can see dust particles floating around it's so insanely detailed- it's also one of the best choreographed fight scenes. you know that moment when luska disappears into the shadows and kain fires into the darkness, then walks up to check the body but it's just her coat? you can actually SEE luska standing behind him before he whips around. it's so subtle but the attention to detail is so there. the whole animation is like that. such a great depiction of what maplestory might look like as a movie instead of a game

I’ve been playing MapleStory for many years, and yes, it has its issues, a lot of them. It’s an old game, that somehow I still love it and so many others, and also somehow, it has not died yet.

What I’ve noticed is that more and more people complain each year, EVEN when nexon makes progress. Does this happen in other MMOs? For instance, nexon may introduction a groundbreaking QoL feature (like the new 1 click buff system in KMS) and people STILL rally to complain about several aspects, such as: “They should’ve done this earlier,” or “why not update the macro system instead,” or “why not just make them passive.”

The complaints from players are seemingly endless, even when nexon scores a W. Am I alone in thinking that they’re ACTUALLY doing a good job in developing this game? I mean, it was made around 2006, and is a 2D Side-scroller, and all if not most of us here are still playing it in 2024??? Yes, it isn’t perfect, but it’s a small team, with limited resources, that has to profit, soooooo…

EDIT: to be clear, I’m all for providing critical feedback to nexon’s GMS team. I believe that is entirely different than complaining. It is the complaining that gets tiresome and boring, like, just quit then honestly. Instead, those who complain are probably nexons biggest whales.

Yall cringe. I only want to see mvp posts

Anyone knows? Is it rarer than arcane boxes?
